My Disciples Are All Villains-Chapter 1783 - Keeping an Eye on Ming Xin
The attack that landed on Li Lun was filled with the full force of the divine Dao power.
The world regained rare tranquility as fierce beasts that had lost their rationally regained their senses after Li Lun died. Then, they gradually retreated.
As a gust of strong wind blew the pungent smell of blood and corpses away from the city wall and forest, the red lotus cultivators stared at Lu Zhou, who was hovering in the air, unblinkingly.
Smoke continued to billow in the air.
The corpses on the ground and the dazzling blood spoke of the tragedy and tears that were common during war.
Another war was destined to be added into the ancient records of history.
Tens of thousands of people, including Ying Long; Sikong Beichen; and Nie Qingyun, stared at the scene before them in a daze. At this moment, none of them seemed to care if Li Lun, the remnant ancient Saint slayer, was dead or not.
When the dust settled, they saw a huge hand-shaped pit on the ground. Then, a ball of green light rose from the center of the pit, emitting a mysterious aura.
“Li Lun’s divine soul pearl…” Ying Long said.
Sikong Beichen looked at the ball of light and asked, “Although it’s a high-quality divine soul pearl, is it useful to supreme beings?”
Supreme beings had activated 36 Birth Charts so they no longer needed divine soul pearls or life hearts. No matter how high their quality was, they were useless to supreme beings.
Nie Qingyun shook his head and asked with a smile, “Have you forgotten about senior’s disciples?”
Upon hearing this, Ying Long said disapprovingly, “I heard that Brother’s disciples were heartless and unscrupulous in the past. They’re not human! It’s better to throw the divine soul pearl than give it to them…”
......
“This…” Nie Qingyun said awkwardly, “I, I’ve heard about that matter too. However, that’s all in the past. After all, those who know how to repent are worth more than gold…”
Ying Long scoffed. “Scum will always be scum!”
“...”
How could the duo dare to argue with Ying Long?
After sensing the abundant energy in Li Lun’s divine soul pearl, Lu Zhou put it away. He nodded in satisfaction and called Whitzard over. After sitting on its back, he said, “Someone manipulated the remnant ancient Saint slayers to sow discord between humans and fierce beasts.”
Ying Long cursed angrily, “Who dares to do such a thing?”
Lu Zhou remained expressionless and did not say anything.
Ying Ling muttered to himself, “It can’t be those scumbags, right?”
Lu Zhou said to Ying Long, “I’ll leave the red lotus domain to you. You’ll be stationed in the capital of Great Tang.”
Ying Long nodded and said, “This is easy. Leave it to me. However, I have to return to the abyss every two days.”
“Alright,” Lu Zhou said.
After all, Ying Long’s cultivation had to be restored. If Lu Zhou wanted the horse to run, he had to give it grass.
When Sikong Beichen and Nie Qingyun flew over, Sikong Beichen said, “Brother Lu, you killed such a powerful beast with one move! I really admire you!”
Lu Zhou sensed Sikong Beichen’s cultivation.
Previously, Sikong Beichen had ten leaves. Later, he successfully entered the Thousand Realms Whirling stage. Now, he had two Birth Charts. For cultivators of the normal path, it was considered not bad to be able to activate two Birth Charts within a few hundred years.
“If I have time, I’ll spar with you again.”
Sikong Beichen quickly shook his head. “I don’t dare, I don’t dare. I still have a little self-awareness. Brother Lu, please let me go.”
Lu Zhou merely chuckled.
At this time, Ying Long asked curiously, “Brother, don’t tell me you plan to go to all nine domains?”
“I’m not that stupid,” Lu Zhou said, “It’s just the golden and red lotus domains.”
Lu Zhou was most concerned about the golden lotus domain and the red lotus domain.
As for the black lotus domain, the white lotus domain, the green lotus domain, and the twin lotus domain, their overall strength was higher than the others and as such, had a higher degree of protection. As long as they did not encounter abnormally powerful fierce beasts, they should be able to hold their ground.
On the other hand, there was no one taking care of the weaker yellow lotus domain and the purple lotus domain.
Lu Zhou had spoken about this to Si Wuya, and Si Wuya had sent the Silver Guards to the yellow lotus domain and the purple lotus domain.
There were also the Four Emperors of the Lost Lands who had yet to make their move.
Lu Zhou thought this was also a good time for the Four Divinities of Heaven to negotiate with the fierce beasts to end the conflict.
…
Xihe Hall had agreed to Si Wuya’s plan and would lead core cultivators to leave the Great Void. When the cultivators in Xihe Hall’s territory received word of it, they also began to move in large numbers. They left the Great Void and went to the White Tower Council. Only a small group of stubborn cultivators stayed behind to guard Xihe Hall.
Over the past 100,000 years, the Great Void had recruited many people.
In the beginning, the migration did not cause much of a stir.
However, the large-scale migration of Xihe Hall shocked the Great Void and the nine domains. The large number of cultivators who moved to the white lotus domain caused many civil and military officials in Great Ming to debate endlessly.
Gongsun Yuanxuan, the Grand Tutor of Great Ming, spoke up for the migration and representative plan. In front of the emperor, he said to the officials, “Who can stop the Great Void cultivators if they insist on moving here? When the fierce beasts invade, who can stop them? Most importantly, who dares to say no to Old Demon Ji from the Evil Sky Pavilion?”
Nobody could refute those words.
The historians in the nine domains referred to this first wave of large-scale migration as the Great Void Refugee Incident.
On the other hand, the Great Void historians saw the migration of the Great Void to the nine domains as laying the foundation and helping the nine domains’ cultivation world to flourish.
No matter the time, change had always brought development and growth.
…
Lu Zhou did not go to the Ninth Temple to catch up with Sikong Beichen. He still had many things to do so he bade farewell to his old friends and returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion.
As soon as Lu Zhou returned, Jiang Aijian brought bad news.
“Senior Ji, there’s news from the Great Void that the pillar at the Great Abyss Land has further cracked… I’m afraid it won’t last long,” Jiang Aijian said.
Lu Zhou paced around before he asked curiously, “The last time I went to the Great Abyss Land, everything was fine. Why did it suddenly show signs of collapse?”
“I’m not sure as well. Your seventh disciple has met up with Shang Zhang. If nothing goes wrong, they’ll be going to the upper core of the Great Abyss Land’s pillar to comprehend the Great Dao in the next two days. Senior Ji, aren’t you going to personally supervise it?” Jiang Aijian felt that it would be better if Lu Zhou was there since it was a highly important matter.
Lu Zhou looked outside the hall and said, “Someone bewitched the remnant ancient Saint slayers to sow discord between humans and fierce beasts. Moreover, there’s a more important person I’m keeping an eye on…”
“Who?” Jiang Aijian asked. Then, his eyes widened as realization dawned on him. He exclaimed, “Senior Ji! Don’t tell me you’re planning to go directly to Ming Xin?!”
Jiang Aijian did not dare to think too deeply about this. Just thinking about it made him feel frightened.
Lu Zhou nodded and said with a meaningful expression, “Since he doesn’t want to come to me, I’ll go to him.”
“...”
Jiang Aijian was speechless. He really wanted to say, “Have you thought of a way to deal with the Scales of Justice? Everyone knows that Ming Xin is terribly powerful. Isn’t inappropriate to act so rashly at this time?”
Needless to say, Jiang Aijian did not dare to say these words.
Lu Zhou knew Jiang Aijian’s thoughts so he said, “Ming Xin didn’t take any action at all. He must be planning something big.”
Jiang Aijian’s eyes lit up. He smacked his thigh and said, “That’s right. As long as you keep an eye on Ming Xin, the others won’t be able to do anything to your ten disciples.”
Lu Zhou nodded. This was his plan.
It was very obvious that Ming Xin was now waiting for all of Lu Zhou’s ten disciples to finish comprehending the Great Dao. It was so important that he did not even care about the collapse of the Pillars of Destruction, the chaos in the world, or the ancient Saint slayers killing the humans. It was not difficult to guess that Ming Xin’s big plan had something to do with Lu Zhou’s ten disciples.
Lu Zhou thought to himself, ‘Is he like Ji Tiandao? Does he know some secret technique that allows him to use my disciples in exchange for eternal life or prolonging his life? However, what’s the point when the Great Void is falling?’
Finally, Jiang Aijian said, “I’ll inform Si Wuya about this.”
